Distinct responses of species structural roles in multi‐trophic interactions to island area and isolation

Ecography, EarlyView.
Habitat loss and fragmentation reshape ecological communities and alter species interactions. However, it remains largely unknown how the roles that species play within interaction networks vary across local communities and trophic contexts in fragmented landscapes. We addressed this question using a plant–aphid–ant system sampled across 18 land‐bridge

Impact of evidence‐based information on horse owners' misconceptions of colic

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Misconceptions can be defined as ‘false, persistent beliefs’ or ‘inaccurate, prior knowledge’ and can influence decision‐making. Objectives To investigate the impact of evidence‐based information on UK horse owners' decision‐making for colic. Study Design Mixed‐methods cross‐sectional study.

Validation of a novel instrumented hoof boot with pressure sensors using force plate gait kinetics in horses at walk and trot

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Force plates (FP) are considered the gold standard for quantitative equine gait evaluation but are limited to experimental use. An instrumented hoof boot (IHB) with pressure sensors and an inertial measurement unit would allow clinicians to objectively assess kinetic parameters and gait symmetry.

Differences in associations between attention‐deficit hyperactivity disorder symptoms and physical activity across childhood and adolescence and among males and females in a representative UK birth cohort

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Children and adolescents with attention‐deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) exhibit higher physical activity (PA) levels than peers without ADHD. It remains unclear how this association evolves across developmental stages and differs between sexes.

Investigating the Impact of El Niño–Southern Oscillation on Rangeland Productivity in the Limpopo Province, South Africa

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study investigated ENSO effects on rainfall variability and rangeland productivity across Limpopo Province, South Africa, using DMP and ONI data for 1999–2024. Productivity was higher in eastern and southern regions and lower in northern and western regions.

Assessment of the Exposure of Australia to Tropical Cyclones Through a Climatological Model for Cyclone Weather Extent

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Australia has different levels of exposure to tropical cyclones. Using historical records, this study investigates the spatial variability of tropical cyclone formation across the Southeast Indian–South Pacific basin, quantifies the exposure of different parts of Australia to tropical cyclone weather events, and examines decadal variability in cyclone ...

Assessment of Human Thermal Stress Dynamics and Regional Drivers Across the Arabian Peninsula During 1990–2022 From Observations

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The results reveal that thermal stress varies substantially across the four AP regions, with winter cold stress in Region I, year‐round heat stress in Region II, pronounced summer heat stress in Region III, and persistent strong to very strong heat stress from late spring to early autumn in Region IV.

How Thunderstorms Are Changing in Mexico: Trends and Characteristics

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Thunderstorm days in Mexico have increased significantly since 1992, with pronounced regional and seasonal contrasts. Increasing moisture emerges as the most spatially coherent environmental signal. At the same time, enhanced instability characterizes northeastern and central Mexico, revealing distinct regional controls on thunderstorm activity and ...

Stable isotope analysis of freshwater gastropod carbonates from Swanscombe: Insights into climate stability and seasonality during MIS 11c

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stable isotope analyses of freshwater mollusc carbonate can record environmental conditions at the time of mineralisation, yet this technique remains underused in British Middle Pleistocene fluvial sequences, despite the abundance of fossil shell material in these deposits.

Weight‐bearing computed tomography reveals greater anterior tibial translation and femorotibial rotation than magnetic resonance imaging in chronic anterior cruciate ligament deficiency: A prospective observational study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare anterior tibial translation and femorotibial rotation measurements obtained from conventional supine, non‐weight‐bearing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and weight‐bearing computed tomography (WBCT) in patients with chronic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears. Methods WBCT of the knee acquired in full extension and at 30°
